My brain is slowly liquefying as summer continues, hence my lack of response to that beautiful fen post about the End of Term Kerfluffle, but this did inspire me to say something.
This is the first time I've really put my finger on the fact that alt!Remus is playing in some part the role of alt!Sirius - except his revelation and pardon came much sooner, as does the revelation about Peter (where IS that little rodent??). I'll be watching eagerly to see how Remus's role changes with this info, how canon!Remus's role will be adapted or if it will even be an important part of the alternity tale, and how third year is going to proceed without this major plot point. Of course, things should be looking mighty different by then. I'm looking forward to it, as always!!
You know, it's funny, because I was kind of assuming they'd drag it out for longer, but it doesn't work the same way with Remus free. If Sirius had been acquitted and treated as some sort of colluder/double agent for Voldemort, they probably would have discovered his innocence sooner. And it would've been just as difficult, if not more so.
